The Rangers signed Milner to a one-year deal Thursday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports. Milner will head to Texas after spending the last four seasons with the Brewers, most recently producing a 4.73 ERA and 1.19 WHIP with 64 strikeouts over 64.2 innings in 61 appearances during 2024. The left-hander is just one season removed from a 2023 campaign in which he had an impressive 1.82 ERA and 0.96 WHIP with 59 punchouts over 64.1 innings with the Brewers, and he'll look to get closer to that form in 2025 with the Rangers.

The Brewers non-tendered Milner on Friday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. After a dominant 2023 campaign that saw Milner put up a 1.82 ERA and 0.96 WHIP, Milner's performance declined drastically, as he finished the 2024 regular season with a 4.73 ERA and 1.19 WHIP through 64.2 innings. The 33-year-old should still be able to attract attention from teams in need of bullpen depth, though his days of working in high-leverage situations are likely behind him.

The Brewers placed Milner on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a left shoulder impingement. It's unclear when the injured surfaced for Milner, but manager Pat Murphy noted that the southpaw was experiencing a loss of range of motion and strength, according to Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin. The injury likely contributed to Milner's recent struggles, as he had surrendered five runs over two frames in his last two outings. The left-hander will be eligible to be reinstated in late August, though it's unclear how long he's expected to be sidelined.
